Pattern-Push: A low-delay mesh-push scheduling for live peer-to-peer streaming
In live peer-to-peer (P2P) streaming, each peer (child) has a number of supplying parents whose packets have to be scheduled and delivered in time for continuous playback at the c...

Improved Bounds for Flow Shop Scheduling
We resolve an open question raised by Feige & Scheideler by showing that the best known approximation algorithm for flow shops is essentially tight with respect to the used low...
